Blues Guitar Lick in the Style of Eric Clapton – Lead Guitar Lesson on Blues Licks

Hey, guys. Its Claude Johnson here and I want to
give you an Eric Clapton style lick today. Its in
the key of D. Its kind of like this.

Basically you pivot. Notice how Im pivoting off
that one note? Then I slide; pivoting again. Youre
just pivoting off of different notes. I talk a lot
about this in Supercharged Soloing Made Simple, but
I just want you to be aware of the basic concept.

I really love the way Clapton will do that sometimes.
Hell do these really cool pivoting licks and I think
youll benefit from checking-out the tabs on this one
just to see kind of how I approach this. Also, if you
want to check-out Supercharged Soloing Made Simple I
go real deep into this concept. Guitarcontrol.com/supercharged
is where you can check that out. Again, just check the
link in the description for the tabs or go to
guitarcontrol.com/supercharged.

dude – amateurs rely on distortion, and it takes away from the actual points you demonstrate. you are better than that. why the same gained up tone, video after video? clean would be so much more effective and easier on the ears. ned

Really appreciate your whole series. Currently enjoying the real easy jazz guitar cds. As a teacher I am a bits ‘n pieces player picking up anything from heavy metal to blues to fingerstyle to jazz – and you do the lot!
